Possible Causes
Solution
Washer not performing as expected (cont.)
Desired setting or  
option does not light
For best performance, not all settings 
are available with each cycle, and some 
options cannot be used together.
See the “Cycle Guide” for the available settings and options for 
each cycle. 
Load not rinsed
Check for proper water supply.
Make sure hot and cold inlet hoses are not reversed.
Both hoses must be attached and have water flowing to the inlet 
valve.
Both hot and cold water faucets must be on.
Inlet valve screens on washer may be clogged.
Remove any kinks in the inlet hose.
Not using HE detergent or using too 
much HE detergent.
The suds from regular detergent can cause the washer  
to operate incorrectly.
Use only HE detergent. Always measure detergent and follow 
manufacturer’s directions based on load size and soil level.
Washer not loaded as recommended.
Avoid tightly packing the washer. The washer will not rinse well  
if tightly packed. Load with dry items only. See the “Cycle Guide” 
for load size recommendations for each cycle.
Use cycle designed for the fabrics being washed.
Add only 1 or 2 garments after washer has started.
The load may be out of balance.
When load unbalance occurs, a washing process will start to  
redistribute the load. This may lengthen the cycle time. Avoid  
washing single items. Balance a single item such as a rug or 
jeans jacket with a few extra items.
Load is wrinkled, twisted,  
or tangled
Washer not loaded as recommended.
Add load loosely. Items need to move freely reduce wrinkling and 
tangling. See the “Cycle Guide” for load size recommendations 
for each cycle. 
Reduce tangling by mixing types of load items. Use the  
recommended cycle for the type of garments being washed.
Wash action too long for load.
Select a lower soil level. Note that items will not be cleaned as 
deeply as when using a higher soil level. 
Spin speed too high for load.
Select a lower spin speed. Note that items will be wetter than 
when using a higher speed spin.
The washer is not unloaded promptly.
Unload the washer as soon as it stops or use Fresh Hold

Not choosing the right cycle for the load 
being washed.
Use the Delicates cycle or another cycle with a low spin speed

The wash water was not warm enough  
to relax wrinkles.
If safe for load, use warm or hot wash water.
